Lost a game on turn 5 today. And I played cards. I like the direction of the adventure's 1-2 drops being value plays that really don't do much when played but are still advantageous toward building value for later. So if only we could stop building on the quicksand that is the crap Classic set we might have something to go off of in another eight months.
Losing with every high tier deck, you are definitely doing something wrong. Before watching good players on twitch, I thought that I made perfect plays, little did I know that I was actually doing a Miss play that will affect me two turns later. I have learned a lot last year and now I use my own decks and get rank 6 to 4 each month, like the deck in my signature.
Gets warlock quest and decides to use zoo to get a few easy ranks. First game against aggro Shaman, I dont draw a one drop until turn 3 while he curves out perfectly to kill on turn 5.
Swaps to Midrange Hunter. Faces a ZOolock who curves turn 1 Flame Imp, Turn 2 Peddler into Turn 3 Councilman coin Squire. I sit there with my hand of 4+ cost cards and cursing my RNG.
Game 3: Up against Patron Control Warrior. Establishes good board by turn 6. Ofc he brawls and his armoursmith wins. Ok whatever. Turn 7 Highmane gets executed, turn 8 COTW gets brawled and his Justicar wins. He also played like an absolute idiot. Naked Patron on turn 5 and I couldnt punish him because my animal companion decided it would be funny to give a Misha when either a Leokk or Huffer could have rekt that patron.
ok so cthun druid is out. am i just forced to play a deck and style i fucking hate or what?
I feel your pain, I really do. I personally refuse to play tier 1 decks because it just feels like your cheating. Stupid? Maybe, but that's my take on it. So, I tend to play with fun decks that are usually tier 2/3 or worse and I'm starting to accept that I won't rank up that high using them versus the onslaught of OP decks out there. It is what it is. I wish the deck choices were more diverse in standard but they really aren't. Too many good cards are now gone and they destroyed too many good decks. That being said, try wild mode and see if you like that better. Wild is MUCH more diverse than standard and your options are much greater. Every class has at least one viable deck type if not more and the best part is that you have the tools to counter stupid warriors, annoying shamans, and hand puke zoo decks. Hell, ya don't even see most of those in wild.
Sure, there will be a few secret Paladins and that sucks but there aren't as many as people think. Overall, you'll see a nice mix of decks using cards from naxx, GvG, and the WOG set. Karazhan will also be in there too which just adds more options.
The problem is, unless I play a deck/class/playstyle that I absolutely hate, hearthstone will never be a test of how good I am at hearthstone. up until rank 5, ladder is simply just a test of luck and whether or not you picked a tier 1 deck.

Nah I'll just keep losing because my opponents consistently outdraw me. gg rng.
Or you are just extremely bad at this game? I know that this is the salt thread but you are the one who complains the most about losing due to rng. Fair, some games are lost due to rng and there is nothing that we can do about it, but c'mon, there is no way in hell that someone is so unlucky. Absolutely no way that you lose almost every game due to rng. The odds of that happening are abysmal which makes it extremely hard to believe. If it were true than you would probably be the unluckiest person in the world.
spectate me then

You could try out some beast druid, its really fun and has lots of flexibility :)
The best way to solve problems is to create more problems until you are dead
Maybe the problem is with your deck, i made this deck and it easily took me to rank 5 last season, so if you have the cards try it:

I give up. There aren't any enjoyable competitive decks left.

Not with that attitude. Make your own. Innovate, become a brewmaster!
